Protozoa are called early animals because like animals they lack cell wall and have holozoic-type heterotrophic nutrition. They have glycogen as the reserve food. They have however, unicellular nature and are without an embryonic stage in their life cycle. Protozoa evolved before the origin and evolRead more

They have however, unicellular nature and are without an embryonic stage in their life cycle. Protozoa evolved before the origin and evolution of true animals or metazoa.
Euglena is called plant-animal because it has characteristics of both plants and animals. Like plants, Euglena has chloroplasts with the help of which it performs autotrophic nutrition by photosynthesis. Like animals, it lacks cell wall, possess pellicle, an anterior invagination" flagellum, eye spoRead more
